Sandy,
I don't think you are bad for wanting your own space.. Everyone needs it.. And I think your hb and bro can still be close even if they are not staying together.. My bil will never impose on us like that cos I think his family really treasure privacy and space ad I think you must somehow tell your hb that.. Of course don't have to do it in an aggressive way.. Just tell him nicely how you feel.. It's not like you are stopping them from hanging out.. Or stopping them from visiting each other.. I think if both families have their own place, relationships would improve..
As for your maid, maybe she has been here with your family for too long.. So she knows how to take advantage of situation.. Maybe for the time being, don't depend on her and just ignore her.. Try not to get too fired up too cos people tend to not want to listen to somewhere who is sooo super pissed..
Jojo,
Yes I am very lucky.. But I must say my maid is recommended.. She's actually my pil's maid sis.. I think if you cannot cope, you must decide whether you really need help be it a part time helper or a stay in one.. Sometimes need to take a risk, I think being a happy mummy makes for happy family..
My maid is only responsible for housework, marketing and meals.. My #1 is taken care of by my mom now while I am at work.. And I think #2 will also be taken care of by my mom while my mil will help on some days with #1.. #1 will go to nursery next year.

My sil just gve birth today at TMC via elective c-sec with epi... Her husband can go in.... And can take pics cuz I was browsing thru the photos in the camera just now... For video, not too sure but if phOtos are allowed I think video mostly also can...
Suddenly feeling v down after visiting... Makes me feel really stressed and down... It's like my bb is still not out yet and I really want my bb to be out... And everyone around me kept asking when I'm delivering... It's like, "people deliver alr leh, when is yours?"... Sigh.

BBgoh, yup... I cook simple meal every night, same reason as yours, I also not prefer to let Terry had too much outside food. Some more I prepare additional portion to bring to work for next day lunch...=) Once in awhile will dine out on Friday night only.
I heard from Jtho she currently order tingkat and the food not bad, was thinking to try out if really can't cope. =)

End up everyone ask me just push.. No need urge. So i really bobian anyhow humtum lo. I already knew pushing will be my worse nitemare cos i got totally no strength at all.

Piggy,
Congrats on your milk supply.. It's good!! =) ya it really depends on luck one.. My friend also vey lucky.. Got a maid that suits her and now she is also very happy.. She got an indo Christian maid.. And she likes to stay at home kind and loves children.. When I see the maid.. She looks like the very gentle sort.. Yupz luck is very impt..
Bbgoh, pearly
No I will never let any outsider be the primary caregiver.. My maid only has to take care of house chores, laundry, marketing and cooking. But now I do ask her go feed my girl her meals if we eat at home.. But when we go out, I don't bring my maid along one... Hb and I will manage everything outside.. My mom have been looking after my #1 since I went back to work after my ml..

Hubby also super worried now.. Especially since he's in night shift and this weekend, all my tenants go back M'sia liao.. Only left me and my girl at home.. LOL!! I think my neighbor also went back to her mom's place in hougang.. haha.. Hope it's not this weekend ba.. xD

Hope my parents can sell their house asap and move nearer soon so they can help me with my kids wor.. Then I can torture my mom liao! Hahahaha.. Cos she cannot stand being committed to kids de.. =X

Sandy, maybe suggest to hubby just stay nearby like what Pearly suggested? I ever stay with my BIL n SIL when we were still staying with my mum, a very very unpleasant experience... Stay nearby then maybe just visit each other when u guys are free or hubby can visit them on weekend?
Elmo, the nurse is bad!!!!! Ignore her!!!!! Ya, we need to learn all over again n what we need the most is their patient n colour face!!!!! Jia you!!!!!

G'morning ladies,
Sandy,
Ya I think you must somehow try to communicate your feelings to your hb.. Privacy is impt.. Sometimes hb and I fight, if their are other family members around, also not nice.. And worse if they interfere..
Pearly,
Haha!! Your mom is like my mil.. But I think now that she see's a granddaughter more independent and chatty.. I think she is more willing to help out.. Somemore she isn't working anymore.. So she is relatively free.. But nothing beats having family members help with raising your children.. At least for me, I completely trust my mom and dad.. =)
Elmo,
That nurse very bad lah.. Ignore her.. Bb is also probably tired from the long labour.. Don't stress.. Bb will eventually be more awake.. =) jja you!!

Wah you all taking about caring of the baby when we are back to work force...hmm for me can only depend on my dad to help take but then I need to see if he is ok with handling of the baby after 4 months or should I wait till like 6 months .... these are the pending issues now that need to depend on situation.
However I know if I have #2 liao I would definitely need a help from the maid or else 1 old man very hard to take care of 2 children wor.... that is later la...
Elmo wow must rest well... ha ha I also never touch a new born before because they seems fragile so by the time Vianne comes out I think I also dont know how to carry her hope the nurse wont be so pek chek or else being the bitchy me she will get a "surprise" gift from me... hee hee "horns coming out liao"
Gerry ya lor I have been waiting for Vianne to come out and Elmo's EDD was later than mine. I going to become the giraffe real soon....
My hubby's colleagues also very excited and kan chiong so always ask him the same queastion... I joked that now he is on mobilisation .... because his colleagues need to cover him and they are in Banquet operations so more tough.... nowadays when I called him he will ask me the same question is Bunny gal coming out now?
Need to check does the raspberry tea really helps? My friends are asking me to try le

ELMO! Congratulations! Well done!
So happy for you! Sounds like an interesting labour, but you did really well to do it sans drugs. The pushing sounds a bit traumatic though...but you are really brave to persevere. Is baby bigger this time around? Is that why harder to push out? Really glad the breathing techniques work - yes, they definitely do! All of my friends say so. I must go practise them later [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Hi Hippopolai,
Haha...I also share the same sentiment...I'll feel regretted after shouting at no.1.
Ya...true...can't expect the house to be sparkle clean during this stage. Sometimes, we only manage to clean the house twice a month...got to close both eyes...keke.
We wash clothes daily except on Saturday because we only have 2 uniforms for my boy so we got to wash daily.
Oh ya...we also consider getting the part time helper to clean the house once a week or twice a month. I think to me is to spend quality time with both of the kids. I really hope that we can cope after no.2 pops and hiring a maid is the very last resort. But I'm glad that there are still mummies like me out there who are going to take care of two kids w/o domestic helper/mil/mum help. At least I know that I'm not alone and if your mummies can pull through, I believe I can do so too. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Haha...I also share the same sentiment...I'll feel regretted after shouting at no.1.
Ya...true...can't expect the house to be sparkle clean during this stage. Sometimes, we only manage to clean the house twice a month...got to close both eyes...keke.
We wash clothes daily except on Saturday because we only have 2 uniforms for my boy so we got to wash daily.

Morning mummies... Enjoy ur Sunday!!!
Hi hippopolai,
Your EDD is on 22/4, am I right? Have you ever considered to clear your leave or maybe even take MCs/Hospitalization leave instead of taking ML first? I am in the midst of planning on how to 'rest' early at home before my c section on 22/4 [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]. One of my friends took 1 week hospitalization leave before her EDD but I know some organizations don't accept that? May I know usually what time is your gynae appointment? Usually I still go to work and then go to the appointment at night. Let's say if the appointment is in the afternoon, it is okie if we don't report to work on that day? Paiseh...i am quite blur on this part so please enlighten me..keke.
Yaloh yaloh...I find this pregnancy is so much different from the 1st pregnancy. This pregnancy I have pelvic pressure and it is getting stronger and stronger when approaching my EDD date. Can't even turn and toss on bed right now. I'll wake up 3-5 times in the midnite, feeling uncomfortable. Gyane says it is normal as it is my 2nd pregnancy, do you feel the pelvic pressure in this pregnancy? Aiyo...plus my boy whining and crying (cosz' he knows no.2 is popping soon so he wants our attention even more), make this pregnancy even more unenjoyable. HIAZ.
Is your tummy very big now? I guess also like me, can't stand/walk for too long hor? So good thing is you're going to stop working very very soon...haha...can take full rest at home during the day...envy. I think I still have two more weeks to go before I can stop working.
